    Yield: 8 Patties

    1 tb Butter
    3/4 c Fine chopped yellow onion
    1/4 c Fine chopped celery
    1/4 c Fine chopped bell pepper
    1 1/2 ts Salt
    3/4 ts Cayenne pepper
    2 lb Shrimp; peeled, deveined,
    - chopped or ground *
    2 ts Chopped garlic
    1/4 c Sliced scallion greens
    2 lg Eggs; beaten
    +=PLUS=+
    1 lg Egg; beaten, divided use
    2 c Fine dried bread crumbs;
    - divided use
    1/2 c All-purpose flour
    2 ts Dirty Dave's Seasoning
    - (recipe follows)
    2 tb Water
    1/4 c Oil

    In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add
    the onions, celery, bell pepper, salt, and cayenne. Cook,
    stirring, until soft for about 6 minutes.

    Add the shrimp and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes.

    Transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl and let cool
    slightly. Add the garlic, green onions, 2 of the eggs,
    and 1 cup of the bread crumbs. Stir to mix well. Divide
    into 8 equal portions and form into patties. Set aside.

    Put the flour in a shallow bowl and season with 1
    teaspoon of the Dirty Dave's seasoning. Put the remaining
    1 cup bread crumbs in another shallow bowl and season
    with the remaining 1 teaspoon Dirty Dave's seasoning. Put
    the beaten egg in yet another shallow bowl, add the water
    and beat lightly.

    Heat the oil in 2 large skillets over medium heat. Dredge
    each patty first in the flour, then in the egg mixture,
    then in the bread crumbs, turning to coat completely and
    shaking off any excess. Cook 4 patties at a time in each
    skillet, until lightly browned, 5 to 6 minutes on each
    side. Drain on paper towels.

    * Depending on time, energy and inclination I sometimes
    chopped the shrimp, sometimes ran through the meat
    grinder using the medium plate.

    Serve on toasted buns with the usual condiments.

    Makes 8 patties/sandwiches
